CitizenShamu Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 http://icv2.com/articles/news/view/34102/cav-returns What's this talking about? I can't find anything to corroborate this random-sounding story? Are all my dreams coming true and CAV:SO is being ported back into the RAGE system? Is something being released on May 1? What's going on? I assume this article, posted today (March 30, 2016) is just bunk, but I'd love to be wrong. Am I? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatrickK Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 24950: CAV: Strike Operations Hardcover Rulebook ($39.99) First product to buy when you open CAV in Reaper's shop. Or was that sarcasm about the RAGE system? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhilahd Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 I was coming here to ask a similar question. The article indicates a May release, but the store shows that the book is available and was released in 2015. So... yeah. Is it the same book or something else? Thanks and w00t(like I need a reason to get sucked back into this game)! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vytau Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Nobody's eyes are deceiving them - the new rule book went on sale last year back in August. The newly reforged miniatures, available in grey "Bonesium" should be on retail shelves in May, though you can order the older metal minis directly from the website. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I'm buying even more! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vil-hatarn Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 It does appear to be a rather poorly written article--calling it a second edition and part of the RAGE system is not particularly accurate--but yes, the 'public' launch of the game is coming up soon. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatrickK Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Well, if you have a look at the Reaper Miniatures homepage -> Games -> CAV there is a lot of talk about RAGE. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vil-hatarn Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Well, if you have a look at the Reaper Miniatures homepage -> Games -> CAV there is a lot of talk about RAGE. That page still refers to CAV2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatrickK Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Of course but that could lead to misinformation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reaper User CAVBOSS Posted March 31, 2016 Reaper User Share Posted March 31, 2016 (edited) Its more of just not getting the details down correctly. CAV:SO is technically a third edition and while based on the RAGE system is more a new hybrid. As to the web page, it is horribly outdated and will be going away with the new reaper web redesign sometime in the future. Additionally, while available through Reaper now it has not been released to distribution or retail stores. As of May 1st it will be.
